As a companion to Getz/Gilberto '76, on
February 19, 2016 Resonance Records will also release the deluxe CD
Moments in Time.
This album was also recorded at the Keystone Korner, the same week
as Getz/Gilberto '76 and features Stan Getz's same adventurous
rhythm section. Moments in Time and Getz/Gilberto '76 document the only time this dynamic quartet recorded
together.

The accompanying 28-page
book includes essays by producers Feldman and Barkan, journalist
Ted Panken, a tribute by Steve Getz, interviews with Brackeen and
Hart and statements from saxophonists Branford Marsalis and Joshua
Redman. The album cover is beautifully designed by the acclaimed
Japanese artist Takao Fujioka.

Ted Panken describes Moments
in Time as capturing the artists
on this recording as a "unit of thirty-something
masters-in-the-making." Keystone's Barkan recalls: "Stan explained to me quite a few times
backstage at Keystone Korner that 'I have never felt as free and
as totally supported as I do with this band with Joanne
Brackeen, Clint Houston, and Billy Hart. They are happy and free
to go with me wherever I go . . .'" Barkan relates that Getz
frequently told him that he felt the most comfortable at the
famed San Francisco club, more than he did at any other club.

Brackeen talks about playing
with Getz in her interview with Feldman: "I think that it kind of
really also displays the quartet at its best, which we rapidly
became and stayed. And he had to be really daring to hire us. He
already had his thing. He was already famous. He didn't have to
have this band. And this band was crazy! I mean, we would do
anything and everything we possibly could. We weren't just there
as accompaniments . . . And then you hear how he played on it,
it's so lyrical. He doesn't play one note that he doesn't mean. At
any time. That's the one thing I guess that I would say about him
that was so unique to me. And he also talked that way,
when he was speaking."

The release features eight
tracks, including Antonio Carlos Jobim's "O Grande Amor," Wayne
Shorter's "Infant Eyes," Horace Silver's "Peace," Dizzy
Gillespie's "Con Alma," Jimmy Rowles's "Morning Star" and others.
These tunes were staples of Getz's repertoire and remained so for
many years. Pre-order digitally via iTunes and receive three
tracks instantly: "Summer Night," "The Cry of the Wild Goose" and

In his contribution to the
album package for Moments in Time,
saxophonist Joshua Redman pays homage to Getz: "His virtuosity Â—
he could play any tune in any key at any tempo, with command and
control and a sense of relaxation." And he further celebrates
Getz's". . . incredible storytelling ability Â— the natural,
organic logic in the flow of his phrases and ideas." Resonance
Records is pleased to unearth these notable historic recordings of
Stan Getz/JoÃ£o Gilberto and the Stan Getz Quartet and to share
them now with the public.
